COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
NEWSPAPER WORK.

There are thousands who look on the
work of newspaper publisher or editor
as nothing and consider it as rather a
pleasurable occupation, a sort of easy
method Of Gaming livelihood, but let
those who 80 think. spend few years
at the profession IN a small town and
run daily paper continuously, and
they will arrive ut the conclusion that
the hod carrier is by far the happiest
person. A man may follow u score of
other callings in life and come out of
them unscnthed by scaD2alous tongues,
but the moment he enters the editorial
arena he is surprised to find what n bad
man he is. 1t is u hard life, although
in many respects it is n plensurable
one, and if the labor performed, especi-
ally if beneficial to the community in
which the paper is published, be prop
erly appreciated, no man is more happy
than the publisher and editor. But
alas such is not often the case and the
good that is attempted is too often i'll
received by readers. Independence in
running daily or weekly newspaper is
the grand Gesidcrntum for SUCCESS, al
though it may be the means of creating
luminosity in the start. but is sure to
ultimate i'll gaining the respect of the
sensible portion of the community in
which the paper is published. The
man who will toady to any man or set
of men and fear to express an opinion,
can never be successful newspaper
man, and on the other hand, he who
will listen to every lnalcontent who may
chance to subscribe to or advertise in
his paper, is IL fool Of the worst kind.
There is no work in oil this busy
world as arduous rs that OF the news
paper man, no matter whether the pa
per be published in n large city or
small town, and there is no branch of
business or profession so much abused
Not only when the news is being gath
eIed, and the paper set up and printed,
IL the editors brain ut work, but dur
ing the silent watches of the night his
busy mind is thinking what shall be his
thame for the next days issue. His
mind is never at rest and the same ap-
plies to the publisher who desires to
make both ends meet and keep clear of
debt. There is not business in which
employees are 80 troublesome to those
who hire them rs in the newspaper
business and certainly not one in which
punctual weekly payments are more
necessary. 1t ID not m easy life that of
newspaper man, but on the contrary
the hardest business any man can fol-
low.--l Nevada Tribune.

ARA dance 10 snerburne last Friday
night, Dennis Murray stabbed Daniel
PETER in the shoulder with pocket
knife with q blade about two inches
long. The knife penetrated TO the bone.
The wound though painful is not consid-
cred dangerous. Itappears that MUIR
ray, who is section boss on the rail-
road, for some reason unknown was de-
termined to break up the dance. He
first went TO the hall fiourishing a revolt
yer aud threatened promiscuous slaught-
er. PETER with the assistance Of others
took the revolver from him and he LEFT
the hall. Some time afterward while
PETER was on the floor dancing Murray
returned 10 the ball and Shipping up to
him with an open knife in hand struck
the blow that was intended to take q
life but the aim was too high. PETER
then knocked Murray down and he was
disarmed and taken into custody. He
was arraigned before Justice Record on
Saturday on charge of assault with a
deadly weapon, but took change Of
venue and will have his examination to-
day. County Atty Livermore appears
for the State and B. +. Boxis for the
defendant, So far as we can learn the
assault was entirely unprovoked and the
person committing it has good pros
pect of free pass to Saltwater.

THE Glencoe Register hits the nail
squarely on the head, when it makes the
following sensible as well as truthful re-
marks:
ga large number of our business men
have apparently come to believe that a
newspaper is of very little use to the
business interests of town, and it would
almost seem that many of them feel that
every cent paid for advertising their
BUSINESSES about SO much money thrown
away. Within the last month We have
had business men say when called upon
to settle their advertising accounts: ]
can not afford to pay such bills, so you
had better drop my advertisement it is
of no use to me anyway 1t is of no use
to tell such men that the newspapers
have done more to build up and keep up
trade in this town during the past ten
years than all other influences combined,
and live business town without good
newspaper would be as strange thing
to see as live business man without a
head. But newspapers cannot live with
out patronage, and this patronage should
be general-not confined to few liberal
minded individuals. The burden Of sup
portinga live newspaper would be very
light if it were equally distributed among
the business men of the town; but two
thirds of our business men do not ad-
vertise only occasionally, consequently
they reap very little benefit from the
small investments they make"

THE theory that the fatal culvert al
Chatsworth was set on fire by tramps is
secuted by l. o. Baker, president of the
Illinois society of engineers, who has
made careful personal examination
He says:
It is plain that an attempt had been
made to protect the bridges of the road
from fire, but personal inspection OF
other culverts in that vicinity shows that
it was not done so as to afford complete
protection. Personal inspection along
the line of the road for Is miles shows
that grass and weeds were not all burn
ed off, hut many patches were left I'M
burned and in the immediate vicinity
was more carlessly done than elsewhere.
The culvert itself was of the usual type
and abundantly strong to carry the
train but for the fire which had destroy
ed the lower timbers. He thinks ii
probable that the fire left by the section
men late in the afternoon, who we're by
their own testimony, burning the grass
only 40 rods away, was driven down to
the culvert after they left by slight
change of wind. Otherwise it Is possible
that sparks from the special train of the
superintendent of bridges, the last train
before the fatefnl excursion, kindled in
the grass near the culvert and burned
slowly for long time, and finally fred
the culvert.
